Bicycle pedal with magnetic member

Abstract

A bicycle pedal assembly includes a pedal having an axle rotatably extending therethrough to be connected to a crank. At least one magnetic member is connected to the outside of the pedal and attracted to an object such as a wall. The bicycle is positioned at an upright position when the least one magnetic member is attracted to a wall with a proper feature that is magnetically attracted by the at least one magnetic member on the pedal.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A bicycle pedal assembly comprising:
 a pedal having an axle rotatably extending therethrough, with a portion of the axle protruding from an inside of the pedal and adapted to be connected to a crank; and 
 at least one magnetic member connected to the pedal and configured to be attracted to an object being formed of a magnetic material, wherein the pedal includes two rooms defined in the inside thereof and the axle is located between the two rooms, wherein each room has a slot defined in a top wall and a bottom wall thereof, wherein the at least one magnetic member has a resilient member on a top and a bottom thereof, with the resilient member engaged with the slot of one of the two rooms, and wherein a portion of the at least one magnetic member protrudes beyond an outer surface of the pedal. 
 
     
     
       2. A bicycle pedal assembly comprising:
 a pedal having an axle rotatably extending therethrough, with a portion of the axle protruding from an inside of the pedal and adapted to be connected to a crank; and 
 at least two magnetic members connected to the pedal and configured to be attracted to an object being formed of a magnetic material, wherein the pedal includes multiple rooms defined in the inside thereof and each room includes inner threads, wherein each room receives one of the at least two magnetic members, wherein each magnetic member has outer threads which are threadedly connected to the inner threads of a corresponding one of the multiple rooms.
